OMG! I know. Whenever we'd go to Chicago for a visit we would leave really early in the morning or late at night to avoid all that. My sister has a hair salon in Los Angeles. She lives 8 miles away from it and it takes her on average 45 minutes to get there. That's because the LA Freeways are just giant parking lots. Even when I go to work at my cousin's office it takes me about ten minutes to get there. Just be safe.
